A Box of Smarties

Welcome, to my country. Where we experienced load shedding. No Wi-Fi, petrol sky high. Politicians fighting battles to stay on top, Less money for you to shop. The poor has to beg and plea, Daily on every corner and street. While politicians’ lives a rich life, From tax payers, they milk every dime. We are a box of smarties, While politicians sleeps with different parties. During election they pick and choose, Which color to use. We are not the rainbow nation anymore, Some parties’ mayhem caused it for sure.

Roebain, as a fellow-South African I agree totally. Except I would say the main culprit are the WaBenzis and WaBakkies: the rich buy the most expensive cars and trucks. I was in USA for 15 years straight, then retired to work as an evangelist at "home." Sick of seeing beggars & Paras. shalom, shalom & Blessings (We shall overcome, as municipal elections saw ANC support fall below 50%) His Will
